Could you survive these Haunted Attractions?

The Slaughterhouse: It’s a personal favorite and each year has something new to offer! The slaughterhouse reenacts the bone-chilling story of a family based out of the book, “The Biggs: A Family Affair: A Tell-All Account of America’s Most Heinous Cannibals.”

Staff will be taking COVID safety measures as directed by the CDC. Guests will be checked for face masks upon arrival and asked to follow local guidelines for face coverings.

Haunted Forest: If you’re looking for something that’s not a haunted house, here’s a haunted forest! The theme of this haunted forest is a young man named Vincent who was obsessed with horror movies and would stay up late watching them. He grew up and worked in a movie theater, but then a fire broke out. The news saw him as a hero. Eventually, he was sent to the hospital and released, and ever since then, he’s been wandering the woods going insane and living through his own horror movie. There are no COVID restrictions listed on their website.

I attended this haunted theme park last year during COVID. The wait was a bit long but that was due to all the restrictions put in place. They highly encourage you to buy tickets on-line for a faster time. They will be following CDC guidelines with six feet distance and enforce face masks.
